Structure of a Sub Division

[pl]

I'm curretly looking at buying a property with land, intending to subdivide and build on. Hopefully hold on to the properties, but may have to sell one for financing next project. I currenty have a LAQC for rental IP's.

What company structure should I have for the purchase and subsequent subdivision of the property. What are the GST implications - would I have to register for GST as it's a development?

Would I form a GST company for the purchase & development, and then 'sell back' the properties to my LAQC?

thanks

Hi PL. You'll get lots of opinions here but for stuff like this SEE YOUR PROFESSIONALS. I have 2 clients doing this at the moment. One has purchased in his LAQC and will sell the section out of that. The other has bought in a trading trust and will sell to his LAQC. It depends on your particular situation.
